Slough sits at the heart of beautiful countryside, close to some of southern England’s most picturesque towns and villages, including Henley-on-Thames famous for rowing and Bray with its Michelin-starred restaurants. There is so much to do and see here – from walking in ancient Burnham Beeches and golf at nearby Stoke Park, to excellent shopping at Windsor and Westfield London. It is currently undergoing a major town regeneration of which Horlicks Quarter is an integral part. Few other small cities can boast such great access to a wealth of amenities – great transport connections, top schools, shopping, parks, sports and leisure facilities.
Slante Raised Planter Edge, by Logic manufactured Bespoke, was well chosen to compliment this amazing residential development. Formally, this 12-acre site was home to the Horlicks factory, of which many of the original features have been retained. Weathering Steel was used for the raised edge along with a bespoke design cantilever bench unit in UK-grown sustainable Douglas-Fir.
